About this Item
Dubkin's last book, a scarce account of his lifetime of urban observations of nature, advocating that others try the same; though he laments that those opportunities were vanishing rapidly, and all his old haunts damaged or destroyed, he still believed other hidden natural spaces existed. Foreword by foraged-food expert Euell Gibbons; Dubkin was a Chicago journalist noted for his advocacy for small natural areas, as opposed to larger parks & preserves. Hardcover in jacket, as pictured. Book shows minor wear, fading to top edge; price-clipped jacket lightly rubbed with some chipping to the head of the spine, minor creasing, short tear & crease to upper rear panel. Text clean; xvii, [3], 172 pages. Size: Octavo. Seller Inventory # u0657
